How To Post My Race Results?
Follow these 5 easy steps to post your race results.
As we continue to strive to serve, support and advocate for our alumni and students, through scholarship, health and wellness initiatives, your safety is our top concern and priority. So we made the Atlanta HBCU 5K Run/Walk a virtual race.
In an effort to do our part and keep you informed, we would like to share the following preventative measures:
1. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
2. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
3. Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
4. Stay home when you are sick.
5. Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
6. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
7. If you have recently returned from a country with ongoing COVID-19 infections monitor your health and follow the instructions of public health officials.
We can’t thank you enough for the support of our alumni, students, race participants, and most importantly our beloved HBCUs, especially during this unprecedented time. Let's continue to protect our community through social distancing and by supporting each other. Your safety and the safety of our community is our primary concern we are observing ALL COVID-19 SAFETY PROTOCOLS MANDATED BY THE CITY OF ATLANTA to ensure we take the appropriate action that is in the best interest of everyone. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. For more information on safely enjoying outdoor activities as the country continues to open up visit CDC's website here.
